Substitute 'Favre' for 'ARod' and 'ARod' for 'Love' and you coulda said the same thing when ARod was drafted. (And don't let the 2005 record fool you; the Packers were plagued with injuries at RB and WR).

Also FYI: Favre was 36 when the Pack drafted Rodgers. Rodgers was 36 when they drafted Love.

Rodgers was considered by many as a potential #1 overall pick after an impressive season at Cal where he was first team all PAC 10 and set a bunch of records. The biggest storyline of the draft was how shocked people were that he fell so far.  And Favre had not made a Pro Bowl in a couple years.

Love had none of the accolades or hype of Rodgers and the Packers traded up to get him. It%u2019s a significant difference beyond just QB age and pick

I'm not saying Love will become the next ARod or that there is a perfect parallel; I was just reacting to the statement I quoted.

I get all of that.  I am reacting more to the "why draft a QB who can't help you" crowd. 

And I don't really care about accolades or hype.  I care if they can get the job done, and only time will tell if that's the case.

Will Fuller suspended 6 games.

Steelers/Ravens at 3:40 Wednesday because NBC is committing to broadcasting the Rockefeller tree lighting.

First Thursday, then Sunday, then Tuesday, now Wednesday.

The NFL looks like a bunch of clowns. Just cancel it, for crying out loud.

I bet they will get better ratings for an afternoon NFL game PLUS the tree lighting, than just the NFL game in primetime. 

Plus my guess is that NBC is a little annoyed with the NFL right now.

They also know that there is a chance the game could be “postponed“ even further.

Agreed, I had no idea there was a tree lighting show on Wednesday night on NBC. It’s the best marketing that show could have ever received.

According to announcers...

Nagy last week: Mitch is different. The benching helped him.

<plays like crap>

Nagy this week: Mitch is different. He’s going to bounce back better than he has in year’s past.

Guys, maybe he just sucks and Nagy’s blowing smoke up your a$$.

Patricia was hired because he was a defensive savant.    Now, the defense that he and Quinn created can't tackle, can't stop the run, can't cover, can't pressure the quarterback.    The outcome was inevitable.

The lions need to put paper bags over the heads of their cardboard cutouts in their stadium.

I’ll speak for Dish here: Matt Nagy should be fired before he leaves the locker room.
